An Italian history projected forward but always linked to its past, they consider various examples, innovations, sporting successes and adventurous undertakings. In the history of Moto Guzzi there are 14 world titles and speed records. The Eagle vehicles have been used by the Police Force, by the Army, also equipping the Californian Police and, more recently, also that of Berlin and several European cities; as well as always being the motorbike of the Cuirassiers, the body that escorts the President of the Italian Republic.
The current range has been entirely evolved, features technological solutions and other projects are on the horizon.
